HGVs and other similarly dangerous vehicles ........have** no** place in heavy commuter traffic.
There are more than enough cars, taxis, pedestrians, cyclists, regular buses, and motorbikes to keep the streets busy and dangerous.
HGVs are an unnecessary danger, and should be restricted to off-peak hours.
TBH I feel safer cycling in heavy traffic where I can ride as fast as or faster than the traffic rather than being overtaken by fast moving vehicles which may be more of the case if you had your way.
Given that HGV's are a necessary evil I guess they are here to stay and ultimately the only way forward is education and particularly to cyclists.
Does anyone have any kind of breakdown of accidents involving cyclists which apportion blame?
